Let T be a 2-string tangle. x P(T+;x,y) + y P(T-;x,y) = P(T ∞ ;x,y) K = T1 + T2, wheren K is a knot and T1 ,T2 are tangles. P(T1; x,y) = a1 A1 + b1 B1 P(T2; x,y) = a2 A2 + b2 B2, P(K;x,y)=a1a2(A1+A2)+a1b2(A1+B2)+ b1a2(B1+A2)+b1b2(B1+B2) Where A1, B1, A2, B2 are base tangles. A tangle T is called by a base tangle if (1) T has minimal crossings with only plus sign.

n-tangle decomposition(n>2)
- Base tangle by using oriented ordered
tangle (1) Minimal crossings (2) First string has only over (resp. under) crossings, second string has also over (resp. under) crossings other than crossing with the first string,….

Reconstruction of a base tangle from a sequence
- Our first method uses to make a base tangle from a
sequence by using small deformations of string end points (The last version).
- The second method makes to classify n-multiple
points which have models of n double points. This program made by Miss A. Emoto. And this program can make n string base tangles with up to
- 12. But practically, up to 9-string, in this case
there exists 9! base tangles.

Obstruction of subdivision
- Usual base decompositions are applied to 2
different strings and so no “free loops” are generated.
- Tangle subdivision generates at most three
free loops.
